1 Research Beginnings: Picking a Topic and Mentor Sharon Herring, MD, MPH September 10,2015
2 Choosing Your First Project May generate anxiety How do I pick a research topic? Clinical research or basic research? What methods/techniques do I need to know? What resources are available? Who will mentor me? Will I ever be funded to have protected time to engage in research?
3 Things to remember Research is fun! Why? Scientific inquiry is based on asking questions about phenomena observed in the natural world Humans are naturally inquisitive we come up with questions all the time Key is to capture the most feasible and interesting questions into productive research projects
4 Things to remember Research is fun! Why? Scientific inquiry is based on asking questions about phenomena observed in the natural world Humans are naturally inquisitive we come up with questions all the time Key is to capture the most feasible and interesting questions into productive research projects Research takes time So don t be so hard on yourself as you move slowly
5 Example startup timeline (note the 1 year planning process!!)
6 Things to remember Research is fun! Why? Scientific inquiry is based on asking questions about phenomena observed in the natural world Humans are naturally inquisitive we come up with questions all the time Key is to capture the most feasible and interesting questions into productive research projects Research takes time So don t be so hard on yourself as you move slowly Research is an iterative process
7 Ideal Research Cycle 1) Observe Phenomena; Formulate Questions 4) Manuscript Writing; Disseminate Findings 2) Locate Resources; Collect Data 3) Interpret and Evaluate Data
8 Actual Research Cycle 1) Observe Phenomena; Formulate Questions 4) Manuscript Writing; Disseminate Findings 2) Locate Resources; Collect Data 3) Interpret and Evaluate Data
9 Developing a Research Topic Key elements Interest (to you and to the medical community) Importance (significance of research project) Scope (depth and breadth of a topic) Time (pick something you can successfully address in the time constraints/due dates) Focus (know what you re looking for; refine/adjust as needed) Assignment (follow directions, e.g., guidelines from funders)
10 Refining a Research Topic Key elements Background reading (to give you an overview of the topic; scope) Pubmed, Wikipedia, Textbooks, Lectures Zoom-in/Zoom-out Obesity too broad Obesity in 18 year olds who live in Colorado and smoke - likely too narrow Assess feasibility (primary data collection or secondary data analysis; resources)
11 Refining a Research Topic Ways to narrow your topic Anticipate the results before doing the first study Follows a hypothesis driven approach (based on the scientific method) If the major results aren t interesting, maybe you shouldn t do it Helps you set a plan in motion for future studies Asking/answering who, why, when, what, where, and how
